We don't deserve dogs.
I fucking hate this comment. Plenty of people deserve dogs. And dogs deserve those people. Jessica and Molly in this article absolutely deserve each other.
"Dogs are so pure and kind that humanity as a whole, capable of great evil, should be grateful for their companionship"
"FUCK YOU!"
Thank you for this. Been a tough couple of days for me, this made me laugh out loud.
I fucking hate this comment. Plenty of other people deserve a comment like this, but not this one.

Good!
